Introduction The shape or morphologic analysis of anatomical structures, such as the vocal tract can be performed from two-dimensional (2D) or volumetric acquisitions (3D) of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This imaging technique has had an increasing use in the study of speech production. Objectives To determine a method to perform the morphometric analysis of the vocal tract from magnetic resonance imagin...
This paper describes a usability evaluation of some aspects of the University of Aveiro new Web Portal (www.ua.pt) performed by students of an introductory course on Human-Computer Interaction offered at the University, during the academic year of 2006/2007.This evaluation was based on heuristic evaluation, observation methods and a short questionaire applyed to users with different profiles.

Introduction: Hospital readmissions are associated with increased healthcare expenses and with higher hospital fatality rates. We aim to characterize unplanned hospital readmissions occurred within 30 days after discharge, according to its Major Diagnosis Category, hospital type and location, and patients’ demographic attributes. We also intend to estimate the hospital fatality rates associated to those readmis...
Coumarins, classified as benzo-α-pyrones, are part of a large class of secondary phenolic metabolites derivatived from cinnamic acid, widely distributed in the plant kingdom but can also be found in fungi and bacteria. Today there are more than 1300 identified structures. In some plants they are mainly accumulated in the leaves, inhibiting the growth of pathogenic fungi and repelles insects. Coumarins are nowad...
A seguinte dissertação é o resultado de um ano de trabalho em torno da construção de um templo. Foram abordadas duas ideias principais inerentes ao tema: a construção mental, a ideia da existência de um espaço dedicado às questões sagradas, e a construção física, a concretização de um edifício capaz de acolher um programa com requisitos muito particulares. São analisados três casos de estudo de edifícios religi...
Os granitos marginais e a auréola de contacto do plutão de Penamacor-Monsanto (Zona Centro-Ibérica da Cadeia Varisca) apresentam heterogeneidades texturais e mineralógicas relevantes para a interpretação dos efeitos desta intrusão granítica nos metassedimentos do Complexo Xisto-Grauváquico encaixante, afectados por metamorfismo regional varisco. Variações térmicas e composicionais durante a instalação dos gr...
In the Segura area, Variscan S-type granites, aplite veins and lepidolite-subtype granitic aplite-pegmatite veins intruded the Cambrian schist-metagraywacke complex. The granites are syn D3. Aplite veins also intruded the granites. Two-mica granite and muscovite granite have similar ages of 311.0 ± 0.5 Ma and 312.9 ± 2.0 Ma but are not genetically related, as indicated by their geochemical characteristics and (...

Technology is present in almost every simple aspect of the people’s daily life. As an instance, let us refer to the smartphone. This device is usually equipped with a GPS module which may be used as an orientation system, if it carries the right functionalities. The problem is that these applications may be complex to operate and may not be within the bounds of everybody. Therefore, the main goal here is to dev...
